At this season crops are maturing
and harvesting is ahead. A great
deal of lahir may Im* saved by turn-
ing livestock hi the fields and al-
lowing them to feed - themselves.
I’ndcr proper handling then* Is
little waste of grain, and aiilimils

woqld not be saved otherwise, and
which jidds to the value of the
grain by helping to balance the ra-
If fields are not already
a temporary fence of 32-
inch woven wire will confine sheep
and hogs, witlr a few stanch posts
at wide Intervals, small stakes
driven in to the ground will sup-
port it. It van readily Ire rolled up
and moved several times, and when
it Iwcomes tod badly lient to stand
up in a temporary fence, it is still
good for [lennanebt mte where solid
corner posts permit tight stretching.
Hogs are well known to lie the
best gleaners of grain, with sheep
next. If -crops an* harvested by
cattle It is always advisable to fol-
low with hogs.. The cheapest pork
both in labor cost and the amount)
of grain required to make loo
pounds of meat, Is produced by a
combination of green pasture, hog
ging down feed crops, and the self-
feeder. Carl I*. Thompson, ex ten-*
shm swine specialist of Oklahoma
voices the experience of the Itest
hog mon when he says that it is
doubtful if a farmer can afford to
raise hogs unless they can run on
pasture a good part of the year.
Besides the labor .saving element
It Is good for the jhenlth'of both
hogs and sheep to get off the |H*r-
manent pastures and <>n tin* culti-
vated fields, where internal para
sites are less prevalent. It is liest

search of fm>d, ami there will be
mon* wastage in the long run. It
goes without saying that shade and
water must lie..easily and contin-
uously asscesssible to the animals
while hogging down or sheeping off
crops. Ex|M*rlments have shown
that a bushel of grain go<*s a great
dl»al farther hi meat production if
the animal van drink when thirsty
instead of waiting for periodic wat-
erings several hours apart.
Mineral mixtures and protein
supplements are usually mot indis-
j reusable If hogs have access to
good pastures ami legumes, or skim
milk, but experienced hog men say
protein supplements always pay.
Corn and eowpeas, corn and soy
beans, corn and peanuts, make good
fallen I ng rations When hogged down
together. With corn alone it is ad-
visable to supply a mineral ihixtiire
and a protein supplement' hi self-
holers. Either wood ashes or air-
slaked lime, and salt in equal pails
is good, and bom* meal may be
profitably added under some condi-
tions. Charcoal Is commonly used
and hogs like It.
The protein supplement may Im*
Ir.ised on cottonseed meal, linseed
meal, (sajriut meal or tankage. The
ox|N*rlment stations of the South-
west have worked out formulas for
protein supplements for their res-
pective states, according to the
availability and adaptation of the
materials. Cottonseed meal is avail-
able everywhere in the Southwest,
and may Is* safely and profitably
fed to hogs by following directions
furnished byrextension hog special-
ists and county agents who keep up
with exjM'rlinental results.
